Functional behavioural Assessment (FBA) is a highly effective, student-centered approach to improving challenging behaviour. The method helps educators figure out why students act the way they do and then make the appropriate environmental or instructional adjustments.

Ideal for general and special educators new to FBAs, this concise, accessible guidebook offers a practical overview of how to use classroom and behavioural assessment data to make the learning environment enjoyable for all; including the teacher. Readers will learn how to:

  • Identify & understand underlying factors of challenging behaviour
  • Observe, collect, and analyze classroom data
  • Adopt evidence-based intervention strategies to correct problem behaviour
  • Prepare a proactive plan for serious disruptions

Blending light-hearted humor with personal experiences and case studies, the author provides concrete methods for positive, effective behavioural intervention.
